Subject: [for-linus][PATCH 2/3] tracing: dynevent: Add a missing lockdown check on dynevent

From: "Masami Hiramatsu (Google)" <mhiramat@...nel.org>

Since dynamic_events interface on tracefs is compatible with
kprobe_events and uprobe_events, it should also check the lockdown
status and reject if it is set.
